Came across this great visual breakdown comparing how Apple Pay and Google Pay handle credit card info. Apple uses on-device chip storage and creates a Device Account Number (DAN), while Google stores payment tokens via its servers. Curious—what do you all think is more secure, and why?

I really want to switch to an android from Apple however one key thing that I’m worried about is switching from Apple Pay to google pay. I NEVER carry cards and only ever use Apple Pay and it works flawlessly I also use the travel feature for the tube (on my Apple watch but I will probably get an android smart watch as well).
Is google pay also fool proof as Apple Pay seems to be? I almost bought the phone I wanted but remembered this key detail. I’m sure it does but just in case does it support large purchases?
I use both a debit card and credit card on Apple Pay. I’m in the UK so I don’t care about the “sending money” side of it as we just use bank transfers.
Thank you for any help!
